The Sites Drawer doesn=92t include all the sites in the world you can=20
subscribe to. There are many thousands and there are new ones every=20
day.

When you=92re browsing the Web, and you find a Web site you want to=20
subscribe to, choose Subscribe from the Subscriptions menu, then copy=20
in the home page of the site, then click OK.

If that doesn=92t work, you may need to find the URL of the site=92s RSS=20=

feed. Some sites link to it on their home page, sometimes with a=20
white-on-orange XML button. Once you have the URL of the RSS feed,=20
choose Subscribe from the Subscriptions menu and type the URL of the=20
RSS feed.

Tips on finding RSS feeds

Whenever you see a white-on-orange XML button you can click on it to go=20=

to the RSS feed for a site. Then you can just copy the URL from your=20
Web browser and paste it into the Subscribe dialog (as above).

You can also subscribe via drag-and-drop. For instance, when you see a=20=

white-on-orange XML button, you can subscribe to it by dragging it from=20=

your browser into your Subscriptions pane.

Other sites may have an RSS feed but not display an RSS button. If you=20=

can=92t find an RSS feed, email the webmaster for that site and ask if=20=

they have one and what its URL is.

In the Find More Sites submenu of the Subscriptions menu you can open=20
NewsIsFree, Radio.Weblogs.Com, and Syndic8 in your Web browser. Each of=20=

these lists lots of sites you can subscribe to.=
